Music reviews of Tallis: The Lamentations Of Jeremiah The Prophet/Couperin: Lecons Des Ténèbres
Music Review: Not too hot
Rating: 2 Stars
Ok, maybe we're spoilt a bit by the great early music ensembles around today, but I have to say thatthis recording is very disappointing and doesn't come close to ones by such groups as Pro Cantione Antiqua. It features Alfred Deller at his most idiosyncratic, which is fine in his best repertoire (lutesongs, etc.), but which can be quite excruciating in ths recording. It may not be helped by the way thay were all miked, as there is a lot of Deller and a bit of a mush made of everyone else. One plus to come out of it, though, is the voice of his on, Mark, singing alto and tenor at different times (made possible by transposition from the usual keys). It sounds like a lighter version of Alfred at his most lyrical and smooth. One wonders why he didn't make more of a name for himself as a countertenor.
